Nice one! Will investigate :)

A classic, to reread and consider in the light of the grim mess the West is in…..

One for the TBR pile!

Blackout by Yann Chateigne Tytel translated from the French by Clem Clements out with @lesfugitivespress.bsky.social was launched @verandabookshop
A tapestry of beautifully woven words, Blackout is an unusual meditation on the myriad sounds of silence.

Wonderful thanks! 🌞Yup us like minded peeps need to connect 👏 too many lunatic overlords are causing bloodshed & mayhem on this glorious planet earth, backed by Orwellian BBC or similar! Gimme a fabulous writer from Ukraine, Egypt, wherever to get a real feel of a place, good storytelling apart ✍️

Nice one! Great selection. Just answered and now see cut off is 3 tomorrow not today, I misread 🙄what a relief, cheers! 👍😁🥳

I just answered at 3 on the dot - I hope me & Zoe at BookBlast made the grade! It’d be so wonderful to be included in #Library #Librarians and #BookLovers / #Books whatever. Many thanks for responding at any rate🤩👏😁

You are a total star thanks a million 😁 I must not be greedy ! So #Library / #Librarians and #BookLovers / #Books would be fantastic to get things going 🥳🥂
